Owen Amos of the Press Gazette in London reports that the Financial Times is dropping sports coverage from the paper.
Thomas writes, “Sports business will still be covered, and one sports column — by award-winning author Simon Kuper — will remain on Saturdays.
“But sports reporting, limited to Mondays and weekends since an April 2007 redesign, will stop.
“The UK edition of the paper will shrink by two pages, but the FT‘s four other international editions will keep their current pagination.
“A Financial Times spokeswoman said: ‘I can confirm that the FT plans to stop publishing its weekly sports page on Saturday 14 February as part of a strategy to focus on our core strengths.'”
